That's pretty good for a new IP and a niche one at that. Well done Jason.

This game is like a Call of Duty but with swords. Which is awesome.

This game has one of the worst campaigns. But it's online is amazing. Aside from the technical server issues. It's adrenaline inducing and most of all fun. It has a complex fighting system and upgrades and mechanics. I'm pleased with the game because this is something I always wanted. I always told my friends I wish their was a sword fighting game like COD.

nothin gets my adrenaline pumping like having to add credits to my psn account just to keep up with players on For honor.

MVGeneral2591d ago

I never add credits. And I more than keep up with everyone I come across.

Just finished the campaign,going to trade this in for credit towards Persona 5.

MVGeneral2591d ago

Campaign? I bought this game and I couldn't get through the 2nd chapter of the Knights campaign. I just play online. It's really fun.

Elda2591d ago

Sounds like a personal problem.I played through all 3 fighter stories which were 6 chapters each & it was pretty fun.I personally don't care about the online aspect so I'm trading my copy in.

Yes, most pc gamers buy their games at retail... (sarcasm in case you missed it)
On steamspy the sales are at 445 000 (not sure what week one was vs week 2).
Keep in mind steam isn't 100% of sales either, but probably the bulk of them.

Wow, this game is still going! Have not played it yet but wondering if it's worth jumping into

INMATEofARKHAM90d ago

I played it when it first came out and it's pretty solid though I did moved on from the MP fairly quick... I did enjoy the campaign and I see the game on sale for a few dollars so I do recommend picking it up on sale.

It has plenty of action and updates.

They have had many good updates along the way. There was a great one where you had to defend an attack and you could use hot oil and all kinds of things to defend.
